In this context, Latin America and the Caribbean faces structuralchallenges that we have termed “development traps”: one of low capacity for growth; another of high inequality, Against this backdrop, digital transformation —and AI in particular— presents a strategic opportunity tobreak that cycle and drive the change needed in the economies and societies of the region. This process entailsthe dual challenge of strategically incorporating such emerging technologies to accelerate productive, inclusive Harnessing digital transformation to overcome these traps requires the real and effective use of these technologies.This involves profound changes, with cross-cutting impacts on production systems, employment, social welfare andthe quality of governance.

The Latin American Artificial Intelligence Index (ILIA), established in 2023 in collaboration with the NationalCentre for Artificial Intelligence (CENIA) of Chile and with the support of various academic, public and privateorganizations, addresses this imperative. It represents a pioneering and systematic effort to measure AI progressin 19 countries of the region, complementing initiatives such as the Digital Development Observatory of the This analytical tool, unique in its kind in Latin America and the Caribbean, can be used to assess, compareand understand the development of national AI ecosystems across three key dimensions: enabling factors;research, development and adoption; and governance.
